1) All of the ads include an illustration, some include a headline while others don't, and all of them include the company signature, but only one contains a copy.
2) The Scotch tape ad is trying to humorously infer that their tape is very strong and durable.
3) The use of humor in an ad is very effective; when people see or hear a funny ad, they are more likely to remember it and possibly tell their friends/family about it.

5) I find all of the ads humorous, particularly the Kodak battery one.

1. The first thing someone notices is that their eye catching and make the reader want to stop and read the whole ad.
2. The scotch tape ad is telling the reader that this brand of tape can handle anything. scotch tape is strong and sticky because it could hold together that giant bundle of straw.

4. I think it is ok for an ad to not have every element. We have looked at numerous ads that don't have a slogan or even a copy. It depends on the type of ad and how well known the company is. some ads are self explanitory and other require more words.

2. the selling message is that the scotch tape is so strong that it can hold something 2 times bigger then the truck.

4. Yes if the illustration is able to get the point across, than i believe that the copy is not a neccasary feature.
5. Yes I thought they were all funny except the Kodak one, because I don't really get that one.
1. The illustrations

3. I think the use of humor in a print ad is effective because it gets peoples attention and it is memorable
4. I do think it is ok to have print ads without all the elements because the important thing is getting people to recognize and remember your brand
5. Yes I think the ads are funny
1. they dont have a definate slogan or saying you have to find it yourself
2. the tape is really strong and it can hold up anything
3. itcatches the viewers attention better
4. yes because sometimes its impossible to include everything
5. yes hilarious
1. The first thing i noticed about these adds were that they were attention getting becuase thye were kinda werid. The more more attention getting the more you are likily to look at the adds and read them.
2.the message they are trying to sell for scotch tape is that it is very strong and can hold togther anything even hundereds of pounds
3. i think the use of humor in adds are good because it attracts the person becasuse it is funny adn makes them actully want to read the ad
4.It depends becuase the add can still be good but not as good as the adds with all the elements that we have learned about
1. Most of the pictures are interesting and you have to look into them to get the add which grabs your attention.
2. The selling message is something like the tape is unbreakable.
3. Most people like to look at pictures and if its funny thats another plus because it may interest the reader more.
4. Sometimes yes it may be ok to have print ads if the picture is bound to attract the readers attention.
5. Yes the ads made me chuckle.
1. The ads are interesting and catch the audience's attention. The pictures make the audience want to keep looking and find out what the ad is for.
2. The message is that it is so strong that nothing can tear the tape.
3. I think that it is effective becuase it makes the audience want to try it and it makes them laugh.
4. No, i dont think it is ok because then it will be missing a lot of important things.
5. I found most of the ads funny but not all of them were funny.
1) There is no headline, or logo. The product they are advertising is hard to see and it doesnt stand out so you dont really know what they are trying to advertise.
2)that is is strong and it can hold just about anything together.
3)I think its effective because it catches the reader and makes them want to continue to learn about the item they are advertising.
4)Yes i think it is okay to be missing one or two of them but if you leave out most of them then you people dont really know what you are advertising or they just look at the illustation and continue with their day instead of getting hooked.
5) some of the ads i found funny like the pepsi one
1. The ad grabs your attention with the images.
2. The message is that scotch tape is very strong and can hold large weight
3. Humor makes things interesting but can also turn someone away from the product for example the Pepsi twist the lime is peeing into the soda for some that might be funny others don’t want to think of their drink that way.
4. Yes you can have an ad without all the elements you do not need a copy or slogan.
5. I found the waterfall ad to be funny and most the others
1. I notice that there is no copy or headline. With those things you just have to make assumption as to what is going on. They are all not very serious adn really quite funny.
2. I think the selling message is that Scotch take wants us to know that there tape is so strong and can handle any situation. Which is why they used this Truck with the huge load to show as an exageration what scotch tape can hold together.
3. I think the use of humor is effective because uaslly I know when I read a magazine if I see and ad I just skip right by it and pay no attention but I f i see a really funny picture I am attracted to it then it makes me laugh and gives me an impression and I will alawys have something to remeber the company by.
4. I do think it is ok to have an ad with not all of the elemnets we talked about, because not all ads are the same. There are different strategies for getting differenet people to resond to there ad. I think that each company based on what they are selling and what their target market is should make a decision on what type of elements they want to include and then they should make a format that should be used in their advertisments.
5. I did find these ad quite funny.
1. that there should be something eye catching about the illustration for the audience to immediately look at.
2. That even that big of an overload of hay won't fall off that truck.
3. The use of humor is effective because even though it does take away some of the purpose of the product being advertised, but the audience would still look into getting that product.
4. There are exceptions for not including all the elements an ad should have. Sometimes, its good to just have the slogan and illustration with the signature because the picture could speak for itself.
5. i do find these ads quite amusing, yet some of them i couldn't see what brand or company its for.
1.That they are mixed up illustrations for the ad but makes since by the description.
2.The tape is magic and can hold anything.
3.I think that the print ads are effective because they all show what the ad is about.
4.No because the ad wont be complete without the other elements/it will make people think its boring.
5.yes
1. I notice the illustration and what it means to me.
2.That the tape is very stronge and also see through.
3. It is effective because it draws peoples attention and they look at your product but its not effective because its usually not realistic.
4. As long as the message is clear and your product and name is well shown then yes it is OK but if it doesnt make sense without everything then no.
5. I find the pepsi taste one funny.
